Nigeria’s former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has congratulated the founder of ARISE Global Media, Prince Nduka Obaigbena, for the milestone reached, after ARISE News Channel became available in South Africa and nine other Southern African countries.
In a statement that was released on his X platform, Atiku extolled the ARISE News channel as one that refreshingly tells the African story in the midst of a prejudiced world.
The statement read, “I am proud to identify with Prince Nduka Obaigbena and his ARISE News TV as it continues breaking new ground in the media landscape. The availability of the TV network in South Africa and nine other countries is a landmark achievement for the 11-year-old network.
“This brings to 54 the total number of countries it is available in and reinforces its leadership position in telling the African and Nigerian stories. No one is better positioned to tell your story than yourself.
“In a world marked by prejudices and bias, Obaigbena’s ARISE TV offers a refreshing opportunity to tell the African story, nay, the Nigerian story from the African perspective, with all of the socio-economic and political benefits to the people of the African continent.”
